Reported by The Mirror, the 28-year-old was apprehended for driving at 44mph in a 30mph zone in Wythall, Worcestershire, during July 2023. Although absent from Worcester Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, his legal representative entered a guilty plea. The winger for City was fined £666 ($832) and received five penalty points on his driver’s license. Additionally, he was instructed to cover £110 ($137) for prosecution costs and a £266 ($332) victim surcharge, amounting to a total of £1,042 ($1,300). John Dye, Grealish’s attorney, expressed regret on behalf of his client, characterizing the speeding as an inadvertent error.
This isn’t the first instance where Grealish has faced legal repercussions related to driving. In 2020, the former Aston Villa player received a nine-month driving ban and an £82,499 ($103,000) fine for two instances of careless driving.
Speaking on Grealish’s behalf at the magistrate’s court, Dye remarked, “Mr. Grealish’s absence isn’t meant to show disrespect. I’ve been instructed to enter a guilty plea on his behalf concerning the speeding incident. He’s financially able to cover the fine. Please accept his apology; it was an oversight.”
